I have actually run into conditions where dfm reported the aggregate to be over-committed. That's when I realized that snap reserve by default is taking up space for the aggregate. A quick consult with netapp confirmed my suspicion that you do not need aggr reserve space if you are not intending to do an aggr snap. Try setting the aggr reserve space to 0 and you should be fine.

Hi, I know when traditional vols are in use, you don't want to let them get too close to full because performance will be affected.
But what about using FlexVols and Aggrs ?
I have a few Aggrs that are at 100%. But the FlexVols in those Aggrs are mostly under 50%.
I had a NetApp support person tell me that its bad to have Aggrs at 100%, even if the FlexVols are not full.
What's the answer here. Does having Aggrs at 100% because the FlexVols contained in them are sized to fill the Aggr present a performance issue ?
I would think that as long as the flexvols are not close to full, its ok
to have the aggr's at 100%.
Thanks,
Paul
